Reframing Financial Literacy

Scholarship related to financial and consumer education largely concerns itself with the

acquisition, management, and growth of financial resources. In a global setting that witnesses

increasing competition for natural resources, along with diminishing appreciation for human

rights, a challenge for financial and consumer educators involves developing foundation for

bettering individual wealth in manners that respect all members of a global society.

Reframing Financial Literacy fills this need by providing literature that examines a broad view

of financial literacy by connecting financial practice with issues of citizenship, along with

personal and professional identity. It relates these issues to educational theory and practice to

provide the reader with information about the relevance of improving social worth, while

bettering financial wealth.

Boasting 14 previously unpublished chapters from an international slate of authors, and classroom adaptable lesson plans for each

chapter, Reframing Financial Literacy will interest both teachers and researchers with its exciting classroom activities and its

provocative content. This is a must work that no education professional should be without.
